Rent a Bus to Rose Bowl: The Complete Transportation Guide

Getting a group to Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena is one of those trips that looks easy on the map and turns into a full-day logistics puzzle the moment you start planning it. The stadium is tucked into the Arroyo Seco canyon at the end of a residential neighborhood, served by two narrow approach roads off the 210 Freeway, and surrounded by zero walkable street parking within a reasonable distance. For a Rose Bowl Game, a UCLA home opener, or a stadium-scale concert, the single question that determines whether your group arrives relaxed or scattered across three different parking lots is simple: where exactly does the bus drop off, and where does it go while you're inside?

This guide answers it using the stadium's own published information, then walks you through everything a group trip needs: which vehicle fits your party, what the Rose Bowl Game and Rose Parade day logistics actually require, and what separates a charter bus from every other option on a sold-out January morning in Pasadena. We serve groups at Rose Bowl Stadium regularly, so the advice below comes from doing it — not from a stadium brochure reprinted as a blog post.

Why a Charter Bus Changes Everything at Rose Bowl Stadium

Rose Bowl Stadium draws nearly 93,000 people to a canyon in a residential Pasadena neighborhood. There are essentially two vehicle approach roads — Arroyo Boulevard and Salvia Canyon Road off Linda Vista Avenue — and they both feed into the same single-lane bottleneck at the stadium entrance. On a Rose Bowl Game day that coincides with the Rose Parade on Colorado Boulevard, the situation compounds: parade-related road closures cut off entire sections of the city from the 210, the 134, and surface streets, and rideshare apps surge to three or four times their normal rate while rideshare vehicles simply avoid the entire area.

A Los Angeles charter bus rental makes all of that disappear. Your group boards at one address, the route is taken care of, and everyone arrives at the stadium together without the I-210 exit crawl or the 45-minute walk from a spillover lot in Brookside Park. There's no drawing straws for who stays sober, no splitting into a caravan of cars that always arrives in three separate waves, and no waiting 35 minutes post-game for a rideshare that's stuck on Orange Grove Boulevard.

One bus, one arrival, one pickup when the game ends. Call 310-943-9118 to get your group's quote in under 30 seconds.

Charter Bus Pickup & Drop-Off: The Part Other Pages Get Wrong

Here is the detail that catches every first-time group organizer off guard, and it's published directly on the official Rose Bowl Game parking and transportation page:

Bus and limousine drop-offs are strictly prohibited at Rose Bowl Stadium. Unlike most venues where a bus can pull to the curb, offload the group, and leave, the Rose Bowl requires that any bus parking on stadium grounds stay for the duration — there are no in-and-out privileges, and once your bus exits, it pays the full parking fee again to re-enter. That means a charter bus booking to the Rose Bowl must include the parking pass as part of the plan, not as an afterthought.

On event day, all buses and limousines enter through Salvia Canyon Road from Linda Vista Avenue. Bus and limo parking is available only via pre-purchased passes — none are sold on arrival — and they cannot be purchased through third-party parking resellers. To secure a bus parking pass for a Rose Bowl Game, groups contact the stadium's Rose Bowl Stadium parking team directly at (626) 577-3100, or for the New Year's Day game specifically, through Sharp Seating Company at (626) 795-4171.

Advance purchase is mandatory. When you coordinate your rental with our team, we walk you through the pass process so there's no scramble at a closed gate.

The Free Rose Bowl Shuttle — And When It Makes Sense

For groups who prefer a drop-and-return arrangement rather than a full-day bus parking commitment, there is a workable alternative for Rose Bowl Game day: the free Rose Bowl shuttle, which loads on Pasadena Avenue between Walnut Street and Holly Street and runs continuously from 10:00 a.m. until approximately two hours after the game ends. A charter bus can drop your group at the shuttle staging area in Old Town Pasadena, then return for the post-game pickup — your group boards the free shuttle to the stadium, bypasses the stadium's no-drop-off rule, and skips the bus parking pass entirely.

The shuttle connects at Parsons Lot B on Holly Street, which is also where Metro A Line riders transfer from Memorial Park Station. Shuttles run every 5–7 minutes at peak times. For groups coming from Downtown LA, Glendale, Burbank, or the San Fernando Valley, this is often the cleaner play: bus delivers everyone to Old Town, shuttle handles the final leg, and the bus meets the group at the same spot when the game ends.

For groups coming from further out who are doing a multi-stop day — parade viewing in the morning, game in the afternoon — the shuttle staging area is a natural anchor point in the itinerary.

The Rose Bowl Game & Rose Parade: What Game Day Actually Looks Like

January 1 in Pasadena is the most operationally complex day of the year for group transportation in the entire Los Angeles area. The Rose Parade runs along a 5.5-mile route on Colorado Boulevard starting at 8:00 a.m., and the Rose Bowl Game kicks off at approximately 2:00 p.m. These two events happen on the same day, in the same city, drawing a combined audience in the hundreds of thousands — and they effectively shut down opposite sides of Pasadena simultaneously.

Colorado Boulevard closes at 10:00 p.m. on December 31 and does not reopen until approximately 2:00 p.m. on January 1. Every north-south road intersecting the parade route between Del Mar Boulevard and the 210 Freeway closes for the duration. That means the standard approach corridors from the 110, the 210, and the 134 are all compromised simultaneously.

The City of Pasadena publishes its New Year's Day road closure map each year — groups should review it before planning any Rose Bowl Game day itinerary.

The practical result: groups arriving for the game from Los Angeles are best served by an early departure and a route that avoids Colorado Boulevard entirely. The approach via the 210 East with exits at Berkshire Avenue/Oak Grove Drive, Arroyo Boulevard/Windsor Avenue, or Lincoln Avenue/Washington Boulevard avoids the worst of the parade congestion. On a charter bus, that routing decision is made for your group.

Stadium officials consistently recommend arriving before 10:00 a.m. if you want tailgate time; if you're just attending the game, aim to be in your parking area by noon. A bus rental in Los Angeles takes care of that timing so the organizer isn't tracking 14 separate cars in a group text.

How the Rose Bowl Parking Lots Work

The Rose Bowl sits on the Brookside Golf Course, and its surrounding grounds accommodate roughly 20,000 to 22,000 vehicles in a network of numbered lots. General parking falls across Lots H, 1–4, 6, and 8–10, with approach directed by parking staff at the lot entrances. Lot assignments depend on the event and the pass tier: premium lots sit closer to the stadium gates, while outer lots require a longer walk across the golf course grass.

On Rose Bowl Game day, lots open at 4:00 a.m. — early tailgating groups who want prime positions in the Brookside lots arrive before 7:00 a.m.

For the 2026 Rose Bowl Game specifically, a secondary shuttle operation ran from Dodger Stadium, with parking at $25 (cashless) and free shuttle service beginning at 8:00 a.m. and continuing until 90 minutes post-game. This option is worth noting for groups unable to secure Rose Bowl stadium parking directly. We recommend checking the Rose Bowl parking page for current lot assignments and shuttle logistics before your event.

What's Happening at Rose Bowl Stadium in 2026

Rose Bowl Stadium is a year-round venue, and groups rent a charter bus to it for a wider range of events than most people realize. The marquee occasions that drive the most group transportation demand through the rest of 2026:

• Rose Bowl Game — January 1, 2026 (completed). The 112th Rose Bowl, a College Football Playoff quarterfinal, drew Indiana vs. Alabama to a sold-out stadium. Indiana won 38–3 in what became one of the most lopsided results in Rose Bowl history.
• UCLA Bruins Football. UCLA plays its home schedule at the Rose Bowl through the fall season, with games against San Diego State (September 12), Purdue (September 19), and Wisconsin (October 17) on the 2026 calendar. UCLA home games generate significant parking congestion on Rosemont Avenue and Linda Vista, and the approach via the 134 West or the 210 East backs up within two hours of kickoff.
• Guns N' Roses — September 5, 2026. Stadium-scale concerts at the Rose Bowl are some of the largest single-night events in Southern California, regularly drawing 70,000+ attendees. Concert parking opens about three to four hours before showtime; the "golden window" for arriving and parking without significant delay is three-plus hours before doors. A Los Angeles party bus rental means the group parks once, together, and nobody makes the 40-minute walk from a spillover lot on Holly Street at midnight.
• Rose Bowl Flea Market. The monthly flea market (June 14, August 8, November 8, December 13 in 2026) brings thousands to the stadium grounds on off-event Sundays. Groups shuttling from the Eastside or from the Valley for the flea market typically use minibuses.
• FIFA Club World Cup (2025, completed). The Rose Bowl hosted 2025 FIFA Club World Cup matches, with street closures extending across Old Pasadena and the Arroyo Seco corridor. The 2026 FIFA World Cup matches for the LA region are at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, not the Rose Bowl.

Whichever event brings your group together, the booking window is the same verdict: lock in early. Rose Bowl Stadium's parking supply is finite, the bus parking passes are pre-purchase only, and the right-size vehicles in the Los Angeles charter bus market go first for sold-out dates. Call 310-943-9118 to check availability for your date.

Every Way to Get to Rose Bowl Stadium: An Honest Comparison

We coordinate group transportation to Rose Bowl Stadium, but we'll be straight with you: a private bus isn't automatically the right call for every group. Here's how the options actually stack up.

The honest read: for one or two people willing to deal with a 35-minute post-game shuttle line, the Metro A Line to Memorial Park Station and the free Rose Bowl shuttle is perfectly reasonable. For groups past a handful of people, the coordination cost of separate vehicles — different arrival times, multiple parking passes at $50–$70 each, scattered lots, and the post-game parking exit crawl that regularly runs 45 to 90 minutes — tips decisively in favor of one bus. That's the group this guide is written for.

The Metro A Line and Rose Bowl Shuttle, Explained

Metro A Line (Gold Line). The A Line runs from Downtown LA through Pasadena to Azusa, with stops at Del Mar, Memorial Park, Lake, and Allen stations along the parade and stadium corridor. On Rose Bowl Game days, Metro provides enhanced service with more frequent trains.

Riders exit at Memorial Park Station, turn right on Holly Street, and walk 0.4 miles to the shuttle pickup at the corner of Holly and Corson, or walk two blocks to Fair Oaks Avenue and board at Parsons Lot B. For New Year's, Metro has historically offered free fares from 4:00 a.m. on January 1 through early the following morning. One-way rail fare is $1.75.

Free Rose Bowl Shuttle. The stadium's own shuttle loads on Pasadena Avenue between Walnut Street and Holly Street, with buses running every 5–7 minutes. Service begins at approximately 10:00 a.m. and continues until two hours after the game ends.

This is the option that makes the bus-drops-at-shuttle-staging approach work for groups who want a drop-and-return arrangement without the pre-purchased bus parking pass.

The stadium itself recommends transit and shuttle over driving for most fans: parking is finite, the approach roads are genuinely narrow, and the post-game exit from 22,000+ parked vehicles onto two roads is one of the longest in California sports. A charter bus solves it differently — it brings your group in, waits through the game, and moves out in a coordinated window rather than competing with thousands of individual cars for the same two exits. Check Metro's Rose Bowl page for current train schedules and any event-day service adjustments before your trip.

What Size Bus Does Your Group Need?

Not every Rose Bowl group needs the same vehicle — a 15-person birthday crew heading to a concert and a 45-person corporate group attending a UCLA game have completely different requirements. We offer a massive variety of vehicles, so you never pay for seats you don't actually need. Here's how the fleet breaks down for a Rose Bowl run:

For Rose Bowl Game day specifically, the full-size charter bus earns its keep most: undercarriage bays handle the tailgate gear, the onboard restroom means no scramble for the Brookside Golf Course portable facilities, and 56 seats means a single bus covers a full row of friends rather than three separate vehicles across three different parking lots. For concert nights where the party starts on the ride over, a Los Angeles party bus rental with a built-in bar and LED lighting turns the 134 Freeway into part of the event. ADA-accessible vehicles are always available — just let us know before your departure date and we'll set you up with the right vehicle for your group.

What a Rose Bowl Bus Rental Costs

Party Buses Los Angeles provides all-inclusive pricing online in under 30 seconds — you know the exact number before you ever book. There's no single sticker price, because the quote is shaped by clear factors:

• Vehicle size — a 56-passenger charter bus and a 14-passenger Sprinter limo are different rates.
• Total hours — how long the vehicle is dedicated to your group, including tailgate time and the post-game return window.
• Date and event — a regular UCLA home game prices differently than Rose Bowl Game day or a stadium-scale concert, when demand peaks across Los Angeles.
• Pickup location — a group boarding in Pasadena is a shorter run than a pickup from the South Bay or the Inland Empire.

For real ranges to plan against: 14-passenger Sprinter limos run $170–$344/hour; 15–20 passenger party buses run $204–$378/hour; 20–30 passenger party buses run $244–$414/hour; 35–50 passenger party buses and minibuses run $294–$490/hour; and 40–56 passenger charter buses run $150–$300/hour or $1,200–$2,500/day. Bus parking passes for Rose Bowl Stadium events are a separate, pre-purchased cost. The per-person math is the piece that usually settles the debate: a 40-passenger party bus split across 40 people — with parking, the post-game exit crawl, and the designated-driver problem all eliminated — frequently lands at a lower per-head number than four cars each paying $60 in parking and gas.

A Real Rose Bowl Game Day Example

To put real numbers behind the logic: for a recent College Football Playoff game at the Rose Bowl, a 32-person group from the Westside booked a 40-passenger party bus. Pickup was at 9:00 a.m. from a Santa Monica hotel, with the bus routed east on the 10 to the 110 North to the 134 West, arriving at the Parsons shuttle staging area in Old Town Pasadena by 10:15 a.m. — before the worst of the parade traffic cleared. The group took the free Rose Bowl shuttle to the stadium, tailgated, watched the game, and the bus staged in Old Town through the game for a 6:30 p.m. post-game pickup on Holly Street.

The 9-hour all-inclusive rental came to $2,700 — about $84 per person, with the routing, the parking logistics, and the designated-driver question handled in one number.

Getting to Rose Bowl Stadium: Routes, Traffic & Timing

Rose Bowl Stadium sits in the Arroyo Seco canyon at the north end of Pasadena. The venue is roughly 12 miles from Downtown Los Angeles, but the approach roads are the constraint — not the distance. The table below shows typical off-peak drive times from common Los Angeles-area pickup points:

On Rose Bowl Game day or any sold-out event, double those times and plan for the unexpected. The 210 Freeway East is the primary approach, with exits at Berkshire Avenue/Oak Grove Drive, Arroyo Boulevard/Windsor Avenue, or Lincoln Avenue/Washington Boulevard routing toward the stadium lots. The 134 Freeway West from Glendale and the 2 Freeway from Los Angeles Proper are the other main approaches.

On January 1, both the 210 and 134 interchange ramps near Pasadena are affected by the parade-related road closures — GPS navigation may not reflect active closures in real time, and Pasadena police explicitly warn against relying on GPS on parade day.

Your group skips all of that decision-making. The route is planned around the day's specific closures and event timing — not the default navigation suggestion — and the bus is ready for pickup when the game ends rather than sitting in the stadium lot exit queue with 21,000 other vehicles.

Tailgating at Rose Bowl Stadium

Tailgating at the Rose Bowl happens on the Brookside Golf Course, which surrounds the stadium. The grass lots accommodate everything from folding chairs and a cooler to full grill setups with canopies. Unlike NFL stadiums with rigid 8×10 box rules, the Rose Bowl's tailgate culture is more relaxed for UCLA and non-New Year's events — though the stadium enforces alcohol policies and standard conduct rules throughout the grounds.

For Rose Bowl Game day specifically, parking opens at 4:00 a.m. Groups who want the prime grass spots adjacent to the stadium perimeter arrive before 7:00 a.m. A charter bus handles that early call without requiring everyone to find their own carpool at 5:30 in the morning.

The undercarriage bays on a full-size charter bus swallow two grills, a folding table, a 60-quart cooler, and a canopy tent without taking up trunk space in anyone's car. Everything rides in, and everything rides out.

For concerts at the Rose Bowl, the stadium typically opens parking three to four hours before showtime. Concert parking runs $50–$70 in advance, with prices climbing higher for major stadium acts and day-of purchases. One bus replaces eight to ten cars and eight to ten separate parking charges, with everyone together from pickup to post-show pickup.

Tips for Visiting Rose Bowl Stadium

A few things every group organizer should know before game day, drawn from the stadium's published policies and the venue's own fan guide:

• Bus parking passes must be purchased in advance — zero exceptions. There is no walk-up bus parking sold at the gate. Contact the stadium at (626) 577-3100 or Sharp Seating at (626) 795-4171 well before your event date. We coordinate this as part of every booking.
• Clear-bag policy is in effect for all events. Per the Rose Bowl Game clear-bag policy, each guest may bring one clear plastic, vinyl, or PVC bag no larger than 12” × 6” × 12” — or a one-gallon clear ziplock bag — plus a small clutch no larger than 4.5” × 6.5”. Backpacks, fanny packs, oversized bags, and non-clear bags are prohibited. Clear backpacks are not allowed.
• Water bottles are permitted with limits. Factory-sealed plastic water bottles and empty reusable bottles are allowed, with a limit of two per person. No cans, glass bottles, or outside alcohol is permitted at the gates.
• Fruits and vegetables must be sliced. Whole produce is prohibited at the gate — a small but specific rule that catches picnic groups off guard.
• Drop-off arrangements for the shuttle staging area require a separate bus arrangement from stadium parking. If you want a drop-and-return setup rather than all-day stadium parking, your group meets the free Rose Bowl shuttle on Pasadena Avenue between Walnut and Holly. We confirm the specific plan for your event type when you book.
• January 1 closures require a departure route plan. Coordinate with our team on post-game routing before the game rather than discovering at 6:00 p.m. that your GPS is directing the bus through a closed intersection.

Trip Types Groups Book for Rose Bowl Stadium

Different occasions, same goal: everyone arrives together and nobody's still hunting for parking 40 minutes after kickoff. The most common Rose Bowl group trips we coordinate:

• Rose Bowl Game Day (January 1). The signature event — parade-plus-game day itineraries that require a bus routed around the Colorado Boulevard closures, with an early departure from Los Angeles and a return window timed to avoid the worst of the post-game I-210 backup. Book before November for the best vehicles.
• UCLA Bruins home games. Season-ticket holder groups, alumni organizations, and tailgate crews for whom the pre-game tradition on the Brookside Golf Course is as important as the game itself. A minibus rental in Los Angeles handles mid-size groups without the oversized bus parking process for lower-capacity UCLA events.
• Stadium-scale concerts. Guns N' Roses, Coldplay, U2, and other stadium-filling acts use the Rose Bowl as one of the largest outdoor venues in Southern California. Concert nights are where a Los Angeles party bus rental with onboard sound and lighting earns its keep most — the vibe starts the moment the group boards, not when they finally find their seats.
• Corporate and client groups. Companies hosting clients at a suite or premium club seats benefit from a single coordinated shuttle that handles pickup, drop-off, and the post-game return without anyone navigating the 210 after two hours in a club suite.
• School groups and youth organizations. The Rose Bowl's massive parking area is one of the few stadium venues in LA where an oversize bus can be accommodated without routing through narrow streets — provided the advance pass is secured. Teachers and trip coordinators handling school-age groups appreciate that the parking logistics are managed before departure day, not figured out in the lot.

Flying In for the Rose Bowl? Airports & Hotels

The Rose Bowl Game draws attendees from across the country every New Year's Day, and for groups landing at LAX or Burbank, a coordinated charter bus is the cleanest airport-to-stadium solution. Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) sits about 30 miles southwest of the Rose Bowl — a 40–60 minute drive in normal traffic, longer on January 1 given the parade road closures. Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR) is closer, about 12 miles from the Rose Bowl via the 134 West, and is the preferred landing option for groups prioritizing proximity to Pasadena.

One bus collects your group at baggage claim and runs straight to the stadium or to your hotel in Old Town Pasadena, rather than splitting a dozen out-of-town attendees across separate rideshares on the most complicated transportation day of the Los Angeles calendar year. Popular hotel clusters in Old Town Pasadena along Green Street and Colorado Boulevard put groups close enough to walk to the shuttle pickup, which makes the game-day plan a lot simpler.

Booking, Timing & the Pickup Plan

Getting a Rose Bowl bus rental right comes down to three steps:

1. Request a quote with your group size, pickup location, event and date, and how much tailgate or pre-game time you want. Our online tool delivers a price in under 30 seconds.
2. Confirm the vehicle and the parking plan. We lock in the right vehicle, walk you through the bus parking pass process for your specific event, and verify the current approach route and drop-off point for that date.
3. Set your post-game pickup window. Coordinate the return pickup time before the game so the bus is ready and waiting when you walk out — not circling while you wait at a crowded rideshare pickup zone on Orange Grove Boulevard.

On lead time: for the Rose Bowl Game (January 1) and any sold-out stadium concert, book as soon as your date is confirmed. Bus parking passes at the Rose Bowl are pre-purchase only and limited in number. For UCLA home games and smaller Rose Bowl events, two to four weeks of lead time is workable — but the right-size vehicles go first on high-demand dates.

Call 310-943-9118 to check availability for your event.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where exactly does a charter bus drop off at Rose Bowl Stadium?

The Rose Bowl Stadium prohibits bus and limousine drop-offs entirely — on stadium grounds, your bus must enter with a pre-purchased parking pass and remain for the duration of the event. There are no in-and-out privileges. The alternative for groups who prefer a drop-and-return arrangement is the free Rose Bowl shuttle staging area on Pasadena Avenue between Walnut Street and Holly Street in Old Town Pasadena, where a bus can drop the group and return for a post-game pickup.

Where do buses park at Rose Bowl Stadium?

Buses with pre-purchased passes enter via Salvia Canyon Road from Linda Vista Avenue on event day. Bus and limo parking is available only via advance reservation — none sold on arrival — through Rose Bowl Stadium directly at (626) 577-3100, or through Sharp Seating Company at (626) 795-4171 for Rose Bowl Game day. We coordinate the pass as part of the booking so there's no day-of scramble at a closed entrance.

How much does it cost to rent a bus to the Rose Bowl?

Pricing depends on vehicle size, total hours (including tailgate time and post-game wait), the event date, and your pickup location. Guide ranges: 14-passenger Sprinter limos run $170–$344/hour; small party buses (15–20 passengers) run $204–$378/hour; 35–50 passenger party buses and minibuses run $294–$490/hour; and full-size 40–56 passenger charter buses run $150–$300/hour or $1,200–$2,500/day. Bus parking passes are a separate, pre-purchased cost.

Call 310-943-9118 for a no-obligation quote in under 30 seconds.

What road closures affect the Rose Bowl on January 1?

Colorado Boulevard closes at 10:00 p.m. on December 31 for Rose Parade staging and doesn't reopen until approximately 2:00 p.m. on January 1. Every north-south road intersecting the parade route between Del Mar Boulevard and the 210 Freeway closes for the duration. Ramp access on the 210 and 134 near Pasadena is also affected.

The City of Pasadena publishes its official closure map annually — check it before your trip and don't rely on GPS navigation, which may not reflect real-time closures.

What is the Rose Bowl clear-bag policy?

Each guest may bring one clear plastic bag no larger than 12” × 6” × 12” (or a one-gallon clear ziplock) plus a small clutch no larger than 4.5” × 6.5”. Backpacks, fanny packs, non-clear bags, and clear backpacks are all prohibited. Two factory-sealed or empty reusable water bottles per person are allowed; no glass, no cans, no outside alcohol.

Can the bus stay with us during the game?

Yes — the bus is booked as a block of hours and can hold tailgate gear in the undercarriage bays during the game, waiting in the lot until your post-game pickup. Set that pickup window with our team before the game so the bus is right there when you walk out, rather than coordinating pickups in a crowd of 90,000.

Is there Metro service to the Rose Bowl?

Yes. The Metro A Line (Gold Line) stops at Memorial Park Station in Old Town Pasadena. From there, riders walk 0.4 miles to the Rose Bowl shuttle pickup at Holly and Corson, or two blocks to Parsons Lot B on Holly Street.

The free Rose Bowl shuttle runs every 5–7 minutes to the stadium. For the Rose Bowl Game, Metro typically provides enhanced service and has historically offered free fares from 4:00 a.m. on January 1. Check Metro's Rose Bowl page for current schedules.

How far in advance should we book for the Rose Bowl Game?

Book as early as your date is confirmed — ideally before November for the January 1 game. Bus parking passes at the Rose Bowl are limited and pre-purchase only, and Los Angeles-area vehicle supply for New Year's Day thins quickly. For UCLA home games and concerts, two to four weeks of lead time is workable, but earlier is always better for the best vehicle options.

Do you have ADA-accessible vehicles?

Yes — ADA-accessible vehicles are available. Just let us know your group's needs when you book, and we'll arrange the right vehicle in advance.
